I found a sewing machine and it works. I’m souped. I’m going to look up all the how tos and what not of sewing, lol. I tried to get my mom to teach me but she wasn’t feeling it. It’s cool; it shouldn’t be too bad. I’m going to look around my house for old clothes that I can practice on so I don’t just rush right into it.
Hair, clothes, books, food and work is what my summer is looking like and I’m not even mad.
Okay, so it’s the summer (obviously) and I gave myself some projects to keep myself occupied. I applied to a couple jobs once I came back from Mexico and hopefully I get a call back because I really can’t work at my old summer job anymore. I just can’t do it to myself.
Anyways, my projects so far are to:
I’m also going to make a bucket list and put these things on it. I plan on completing the bucket list (*crosses fingers*) this summer or hopefully before the year is through.
My final paper for my one of my women’s studies classes is about the hyper sexuality of women in hip hop music videos. I’ve never been so excited to write a paper… in my life. I cannot wait to start this. Just had to share.
What are your thoughts on the current state of music? What genre are you most fond of and what about this genre of music makes it the best to you?
Hm. My thoughts… The music today is definitely not how it used to be but I’m not really surprised by it’s progression. Too be completely honest I’m really slow when it comes to newer music because half the time it usually doesn’t interest me. It’s decent in the sense that it’s catchy and I’ll sing along to it but artists like NIcki Minaj (my guilty pleasure) are annoying as hell. Music could be a lot better at this current state but if people are buying music now then why fix something that’s not broken?
The genre I’m most fond of would probably be Jazz, Motown and R&B. Jazz I’ll just always love because it is soothing to no ends. Motown will always have a special place in my heart because my grandfather used to played nothing Al Green, Marvin Gaye and artists of the sort. Nothing but love. And R&B, I just love how relaxing it makes me just like jazz.
Nothing hurts me more than not having a control over a situation. I wish I can just fix everything and everyone. I hate seeing the people I love hurt because then I just take on that weight. Granted, I’m not perfect and I do have problems but I tend to forget about them when others are involved.
I put others first so I can avoid thinking or dealing with my own. I’m better with facing other people’s problems them my own.
This new found something has come over me. I don’t know what it is yet. I never imagined it would be like this but I have no problem with it as bad as it sounds. I need to chill though.
I had my roommate change my password and deactivate my Facebook. I’m having my sister change my password on Twitter and that just leaves Tumblr. I’m debating whether or not I want to go through all these extreme lengths but I need to focus. It’s the only way I can. I wish I had enough will power to just let these things go but I am the worst procrastinator in the world. Sigh. This hiatus is definitely needed though.
I’ve just been in my thoughts for the past two weeks. I don’t know what’s up with me but I do know what needs to happen. It needs to happen fast because I blow a fuse. Better yet, that might not be what I need but it’s what I want and that’s honestly the only thing that matters right now.
